    Thought I might try this as a sticky..
    TomTom's mapshare system works on volume. The more people who make & share corrections the more chance there is the corrections get passed on & included in the next map release.
    The idea of this thread is if we all post errors we find & we all correct & share them there is a better chance of our corrections getting through.
    I will also pass them to TomTom directly via Beta Test Forum.

    If we use this template & keep them the same it will help everyone.

    Correction Type : Unblock Road
    City : Dublin 9
    Road Name : Cian Park
    Co Ordinates : N53 deg 22.063 W 6 deg 15.286
    Description : Unblock all sections of Cian Park.

    If there are other corrections that are not possible via mapshare please post here & I will pass them on..

    Don't know the map coordinates sorry but Moneenageisha Roundabout in Galway is now a traffic-light controlled junction, not a roundabout (although I note that Google Maps still has it listed as a roundabout as well). Also, in Dublin there should be no right turn from Harrington Street or Lennox Street onto South Richmond Street.

    The latest firmare also allows for add or remove rounabouts. It does not make the correction on your device but it does send to MapShare.
    Did you correct the turn restrictions on your device?

    Can you look at the attached image & tell me which rounabout you are referring to?

    There is no right turn from Harrington Street .Map Western_and_Central_Europe v840.2562 shows Richmond Street South one way northbound onto Camden Street Upper & One way southbound from Harcourt Road, which is also one way heading towards the junction with Harrington Street & Camden Street Upper.
    Please let me know if there is an error I am missing or are you on an older map version.

    Hi, it's the roundabout in the far right corner of that map, where College Rd meets Wellpark Rd. I have used the "remove a roundabout" option and the correction has gone in to TomTom. As for Dublin, you could actually be right that the TomTom's got it correct re Harrington St but last week I was driving down South Circular Road with my destination being Rathmines Road and the TomTom definitely seemed to be trying to route me down Synge St, onto Lennox St, and then right onto South Richmond St and Rathmines Road. I am almost certain it was advocating a right turn from Lennox to Richmond. I have the latest maps I believe.

    Heres one. 2 releases ago Kildare St was one way last release it bacame 2 way ??? I submitted a correction and now its still 2 way on latest update. Now I would have thought that Irelands busiest roundabout (St Stephens Green) would at least have the roads in and out of it correct.

    What format do we use to report a roundabout way out of line. In Nenagh coming onto the Limerick road N7 off the N52. When you come onto the roundabout the TomTom map gets completely lost. Car would be in the middle of a field if i followed TomToms instruction. I realise this road is still under constuction but this rounabout has been there over a year now.

    N 52°50.790', W 8°14.967'

    There are two rounabouts at this junction. Both are offline.

    There is also a car park in Nenagh at N 52°51.775', W 8°12.202' called Johns place car park its behind a terrace of houses called Orchard Heights on Sarsfield Street.

    Is that all you need KoolKid?
